I'm afraid it isn't that easy. nmap.1 is generated from DocBook source (docs/nmap.xml in the Nmap tarball) using xsltproc. The best solution would be to fix whatever part of the toolchain is producing the invalid nroff. If you have suggestions or ideas, I'd be happy to hear them. We use DocBook as the official man page source because we also generate HTML and PDF versions.
I understand there is a flaw in the generation process that is beyond your control, but the fact remains that the debian package ships with a faulty man page. The fix (at least for debian) might be easy by patching nmap.1 after it has been generated. I filed this bug from a usability perspective (viewing the man page generates errors and misses 2 lines), not to point out anyone made a mistake somewhere.
